Greetings all,
                      With some of the explanations about why the ATTN Led 
blinks it would appear *ALL* (or most) K1's have this phenomena   and it 
certainly isn't a "fault".
I would never have noticed it if it hadn't been bought up, but , YES , my 
K1 blinks away in the background when the battery voltage is being 
displayed.   I am surprised more led's don't blink considering the amount 
of functions crammed into such a small radio! Still a mighty little radio 
even though I am spoilt by the K2 now.....
(p.s I do not have the KBT1 in my K1 )
Cheers......Ron ZL1TW
